  • Summary

  • For this episode on the WTS podcast Dan and Will listen to and discuss excerpts from the truly epic stereophonic documentary 'Bells In Europe' (1973)


    Written & directed by Peter Leonard Brawn (winner of the prix Italia) and recorded over 41 days across 9 counties - Bells in Europe is nothing less than a chronicle of humanity understood through the lens of the church bell.


    'They were made to serve the worship of God and also destruction for over the centuries, time after time - guns were cast from the bronze of bells. Bells as witness to human life, celebrating a birth or a battle. They themselves are indifferent to the occasion, being just so much metal. Mere instruments. It’s up to man to decide how to use them'.


    Story 1 (the birth of the bell) starts: 00:05:14

    Story 1 (the birth of the bell) ends: 00:15:00


    Story 2 (Bavarian wedding) starts: 00:24:20

    Story 2 (Bavarian wedding) ends: 00:32:52
